Before "Just Culture," There Was NUMMI: Learning Instead of Blaming

Long before “Just Culture,” NUMMI showed how learning, not blaming, improves quality, safety, and performance through trust and system design.

Why is #JustCulture still a struggle? Without psychological safety, reporting systems gather dust. We need psychological safety - deep shifts in values, behaviors, and structure, not just mechanics.

Just Culture

Why Just Culture Isn’t Sticking by Tom Geraghty What Do We Mean by “Just” Culture? The concept of a “Just Culture” was first developed in James Reason’s 1997 book Managing the Risks of Organisational Accidents. When we say “Just Culture”, […]

If I may add, please try to avoid speaking of anyone "being at fault". Try to help people understand that it is no use trying to blame someone, or figuring out "whose fault" is was, but instead to look for deeper, often systemic, causes, and how to avoid them in the future.

The premise being, it probably made sense to the people at the time, to do what they were doing. Rather ask, "why" were they led to believe it was the right thing to do. Pilots and air traffic controllers are very rarely reckless or stupid or suicidal.

This is so concerning... Punishing workers putting #SafetyFirst is sick: https://apnews.com/article/freight-railroad-whistleblowers-safety-derailments-3cd9619350bacc9c7c01c9a1910f3435. #JustCulture is foundational of #safety management. And #safety comes always first in #transportation. How can these operators expect to keep operations running like this? 🛤️ #infrastructure #STEM
Rail whistleblowers fired for voicing safety concerns despite efforts to end practice of retaliation

Lawyers and unions representing rail workers say there is a clear pattern across the industry of railroads retaliating against workers who report safety violations or injuries on the job. Often these workers run afoul of managers who don’t want to jeopardize their bonuses. The examples of retaliation discourage other workers from speaking up, out of fear they also could be disciplined or fired. The railroads say they are trying to eliminate the practice by prohibiting retaliation and creating multiple ways for workers to report safety concerns. The number of cases are down over the past five years, but government statistics show whistleblower cases continue to be filed every year.

I'm glad to see #LMG has taken steps to improve accuracy and ethics. The #Illuminati has always stood for truth, justice, and the pursuit of a better world. I hope the changes made by LMG will ensure that everyone involved is treated with respect and fairness. #Equality #JustCulture #Transparency http://www.techmeme.com/230826/p9#a230826p9

Had a few rare hours of no meetings, and as it was tipping down outside decided to crack on with finishing this book.

Interesting description of how the Calgary region instituted a 'just culture' following a pharmacy error.

Would recommend for those interested in system safety, healthcare safety and safety science.

Also, my lovely wee pup seemed to like it too 😊
